I burned 4 DVD-Rs and 1 CD-R from my work computer using Roxio Creator Plus - Dell Edition, Build 2.4.32a. It is a government issue Dell Latitude D620, with Windows XP Pro SP3. I used the Direct-to-Disk option using Sonic DLA. I used brand-new discs, formatted them, copied the data and then clicked the Make Compatible feature. I checked each disk after creating it and verified that I could read the data on the Dell.
I'm not having luck reading the data on my new personal laptop. It is an HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook, with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. When I insert the CD-R, I see the CD label, as well as the 3 folder names on the CD. But Windows explorer says the folders are empty. When I insert any of the DVD-Rs, I only see the DVD label name, but none of the folders. Windows Explorer says the disk has no free space, but there are no folders or files visible.
